<p>This work deals with the modeling the processes of the collaboration in practical work of electronics in a context of e-learning and the remote laboratory which is a new technology allows students to manipulate the practical experience the electronics by controlling all equipments and instruments of a laboratory via the web without moving to t laboratory. That is for to solve the problems of overcrowding students in universities and the restriction of time and places and the lack of some instrument in laboratory. Even this new project will allow the sharing all instruments and equipments between universities in the world for to have a cooperation in scientific learning. In this work we are interested to modeling the processes of collaborative electronics practical work, whose actors are : tutor, member, coordinator and the secretary and collaborative tools. Two models have been developed: a tutor-student model showing the activities of the learner and tutor, and moderating-member-secretary model that focuses more specifically on the roles of the moderator (coordinator) and the secretary (reporter). This modelling has made it possible to better understand the processes considered and to detect the various problems that may arise during an online particle work collaborative process.</p>

“…This card is also characterized by the integration of the adaptation circuit to the instruments with an RS232 interface. Unlike the version developed in Farah et al , the instruments are connected to the SM instead of the Labwork board. This variant has the advantage of facilitating the passage with ease from one Labwork to another.…”

The development of remote lab has grown during the last decade. However, almost all current laboratories use proprietary software (a Labview like software) and expensive hardware (server) to implement them. This paper presents the development of a low‐cost alternative, flexible, and reconfigurable remote lab, based on an architecture built around an Arduino Mega. Low‐bandwidth connections requirement was carried out by the use of HTML code for the development of the required graphical user interface. The usability and effectiveness of the proposed solutions were evaluated by considering a case study of two groups of students that carried out the same lab work: The first one remotely and the second one in a hands‐on lab. This test showed that the remote laboratory was well received by students: Remote students group realize their task in a shorter time and have slightly better outcomes than students group in a hands‐on laboratory. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…Therefore, how to design a flexible approach to rapidly integrate remote experiment into RL system is still a vital research topic for RL development [5], [6], [7]. To address this essential issue, a new flexible framework based on social Instant Messaging (IM) application architecture as a TURN-KEY remote experimental integration solution is proposed and implemented in this paper.…”

“…A flexible RL architecture was designed and implemented at University of Limoges and University of Mostaganem [5]. They proposed a flexible architecture based on Node.js web engine, and used a FEHI (Flexible Ethernet Hardware Interface) and PEB (Practical Evaluation Board) to directly handle the real-time communication between experiment equipment and Node.js server without using any software tools, such as NI LabVIEW, MATLAB.…”

Abstract-Remote laboratory (RL) has become an important component of online education and smart factory due to its capability of remote operation and cost-saving. Recent advantages of information technology have provided various ways to develop RLs. However, how to rapidly bring an offline experiment online is still a vital issue in the development of RL. In this paper, a new flexible framework based on social instant messaging (IM) application architecture is proposed for integrating an offline remote experiment into RL rapidly as a communication node with unique ID. To rapidly connect the LabVIEW controlled devices to server, a new LtoN_UID (LabVIEW to Node.js with Unique ID) module built on Socket.IO protocol is designed and implemented. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this new flexible framework, two existing engineering experiments, i.e., a Smart Vibration Platform (SVP) experiment and a PID motor speed control experiment, are integrated into remote laboratory.
